SuSE added these entries when deploying ACPI in Linux-2.4.
I pulled them into Linux-2.6 on 2003-08-09.
Over the last 6+ years, several entries have proven to be
unnecessary and deleted, while no new entries have been added.
Matthew suggests that they now have negative value, and I agree.

The PCI initialization in pci_subsys_init() is a mess. pci_numaq_init,
pci_acpi_init, pci_visws_init and pci_legacy_init are called and each
implementation checks and eventually modifies the global variable
pcibios_scanned.
x86_init functions allow us to do this more elegant. The pci.init
function pointer is preset to pci_legacy_init. numaq, acpi and visws
can modify the pointer in their early setup functions. The functions
return 0 when they did the full initialization including bus scan. A
non zero return value indicates that pci_legacy_init needs to be
called either because the selected function failed or wants the
generic bus scan in pci_legacy_init to happen (e.g. visws).

We need to fall back from logical-flat APIC mode to physical-flat mode
when we have more than 8 CPUs. However, in the presence of CPU
hotplug(with bios listing not enabled but possible cpus as disabled cpus in
MADT), we have to consider the number of possible CPUs rather than
the number of current CPUs; otherwise we may cross the 8-CPU boundary
when CPUs are added later.
32bit apic code can use more cleanups (like the removal of vendor checks in
32bit default_setup_apic_routing()) and more unifications with 64bit code.
Yinghai has some patches in works already. This patch addresses the boot issue
that is reported in the virtualization guest context.

In commit 0de51088e6, we introduced the
use of acpi-cpufreq on VIA/Centaur CPU's by removing a vendor check for
VENDOR_INTEL. However, as it turns out, at least the Nano CPU's also
need the PDC (processor driver capabilities) handshake in order to
activate the methods required for acpi-cpufreq.
Since arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc() contains another vendor check for
Intel, the PDC is not initialized on VIA CPU's. The resulting behavior
of a current mainline kernel on such systems is: acpi-cpufreq
loads and it indicates CPU frequency changes. However, the CPU stays at
a single frequency
This trivial patch ensures that init_intel_pdc() is called on Intel and
VIA/Centaur CPU's alike.

Some IO-APIC routines are ACPI specific now, but need to

Remove #ifdef ACPI around these routines:

io_apic_get_version(int ioapic);
io_apic_get_redir_entries(int ioapic);
Move these routines from ACPI-specific boot.c to io_apic.c:
uniq_ioapic_id(u8 id)
mp_find_ioapic()
mp_find_ioapic_pin()
mp_register_ioapic()
Also, since uniq_ioapic_id() is now no longer static,
re-name it to io_apic_unique_id() for consistency
with the other public io_apic routines.
For simplicity, do not #ifdef the resulting code ACPI || SFI,
thought that could be done in the future if it is important
to optimize the !ACPI !SFI IO-APIC x86 kernel for size.

[PATCH] Remove APIC version/cpu capability mpparse checking/printing
ACPI went to great trouble to get the APIC version and CPU capabilities
of different CPUs before passing them to the mpparser. But all
that data was used was to print it out. Actually it even faked some data
based on the boot cpu, not on the actual CPU being booted.
Remove all this code because it's not needed.

At the time, the IOAPIC version number was deliberately not printed
in the x86_64 code path. However, after the x86 and x86_64 files were
